exim is an MTA. A very extensible MTA, but with no real anti-spam features. It doesn't have built-in greylisting. spamd can be called, but only one spamd, not several different spamfilters to add results (at least not without tricky piped and re-injected exim instances). Exim works fine as an MTA but obviously does not have (as no other MTA has) distributed checksum algorithms syncronized to high available databases to categorize an email to "clean", "bulk", "spam" and so on. So a serious antispam setup requires more than exim and more than a pure eXpurgate installation.
